About us: The Cold War History Research Center’s main mission is to become a
virtual center for Cold War history research in East Central Europe and through the
Center’s web site (www.coldwar.hu), established in 2000 to become the main
provider of freely available English language online materials concerning research on
contemporary history of the former Soviet Bloc countries. In 2012 we started to
publish an extensive Chronology of the Soviet Bloc (1945–1991) which is now
completed up to 1968.
For the program of our previous conferences and for more information about the
Center and its internship program, please visit our website or contact Norbert Timmel
